To start at QB as a 9th grader in 5A, you are either incredibly gifted and talented or the pickins were pretty slim at QB. Which was it?

Sounds like the kid can ball. It will be a good test for our defense.

Porter has a new coach, KP's old coach, and is about 400 kids shy of doubling Lumberton's enrollment. They used to be terrible. I would imagine they still struggle with most of the teams in the district but probably not a team like Lumberton where they'll have every advantage. Will most likely be a tight game but if I had to bet I would take Porter.

He's talking about Porter being Bigger, Stronger and Faster than the Raiders. Probably also saying that they are better coached, better off-season program, better gene pool, better looking girlfriends, etc, etc.  All of this because they are West of the Trinity. 

[liltex]

Think he's sayin Porter has been playing stronger opponents in 21-5a w/alot more kiddos,they're growing & have a good coach

Oh yeah. Porter plays tougher opponents and they were probably all breast-fed while the Raiders were bottle-fed.

I guess not every advantage, the game is at Lumberton. I'm not saying they're going to win, they have a new head coach and I'm sure it'll take a while for the kids to be able to execute his system the way he would like. You can argue that before he took the New Caney admin. job coach Holley was the second best coach in 21-5A, he beat an undefeated CE King and turned around and knocked off Ned as the 4th place team later that year. He'll have those same type of athletes at Porter which is less than 8 miles from KP.

Lumberton runs an offense that's easy to defend after watching a little tape and defense is where coach Holley will probably make his mark the earliest. He's probably going to try to win games at the line of scrimmage until he lines things out, problem for Lumberton is that is exactly where they struggle.

I know you were being facetious but that about covers it. We played both teams in a two week time span last year, we beat Porter by 28 and we beat Lumberton by 29. I actually got to look at what both teams put on the field.  It is what it is, Lumberton is a small 5A that can put a scrappy team on the field sometime and is coached by the hometown guy. Porter is a future 6A if they don't build another school and will have about 2000 kids next alignment. Throw all of that out and just go strictly off coaching prowess though, you have to give the advantage to Porter.

You know by picking Porter to win, you now have given up the right to say "Big deal. You beat Porter.  You were supposed to beat Porter." whenever Lumberton wins.  Right?  I expect a polite, sincere, congratulatory statement after we pull off the upset.

I agree with you about Lumberton, we've been anything but consistent. Hopefully that can change in these coming years.

Porter has three  Sophomores starting offensive line all are good but inexperienced pups. I've seen the strength boards at Porter they will not be anywhere close to Lumberton physically in the trenches this season. 

 

Defensive line for Porter is weak and LBs are average. If Lumberton holds down Carlos Norman and Shane Carney thats ball game. Lumberton wins 28-21 and porter gives up at least 3 turnovers.
